The Professor
guitar chords lyrics
capo 3 prease
C
Well I don't know if I'm wrong
B/Am
Cause she's only just gone
Am G
Here's to another relationship
F Em
Bombed by excellent breed of gamete disease
F G
I'm sure when I'm older I'll know what that means
C B/Am
Cried when she should and she laughed when she could
Am G
Here's to the man with his face in the mud
F Em
And an overcast play just taken away
F G
From the lover's in love at the centre of stage yeah
F
Loving is fine if you have plenty of time
G
For walking on stilts at the edge of your mind
F
Loving is good if your dick's made of wood
G
And the dick left inside only half understood her
Fmaj7
What makes her come and what makes her stay?
G6
What make the animal run, run away yeah
Fmaj7
What makes him stall, what makes him stand
G6
And what shakes the elephant now
mute or G
And what makes a man?

Am G
Why the fuck is this day taking so long
F Em
I was a lover of time and once she was mine
F G
I was a lover indeed, I was covered in weed
C B/Am
Cried when she should and she laughed when she could
Am G
Well closer to god is the one who's in love
F Em
And I walk away cause I can
F G
Too many options may kill a man
F
Loving is fine if it's not in your mind
G
But I've fucked it up now, too many times
F
Loving is good if it's not understood

Yeah, but I'm the professor And feel that I should know
